I have a key to one of the Cordy Cult gates.......😈...feeling almost obligated to share a link to this new research paper. 

Funny story,  when I started doing masonry on my own pricing was difficult.  I called another company once and as soon as the guy realized I was not a client and just another mason trying to find out his prices he said "Fuck you,  you piece of shit!" (Click)    lol.  It reminds me of what's happened with cordy breeders n the US. In a way I get it but I also fully believe IF YOU CAN -THEN YOU SHOULD and being helpful/kind is the true enlightenment 

News is  👌

Is anyone playing with VPD based models for conditioning a grow VS relative humidity based target models? The reasoning being the compensation for temp built into the vpd model...thinking .4kpa target with a .1kpa buffer.

I just watched the dehydrator on the cheap video. most of the home dehumidification units Ive looked at only go down to 30%. Does the end up being low enough for storing dried mushrooms or marinated and dried mushrooms (jerky).  Any thoughts?

What the Cordy-Cult doesn't want you to know about Cordyceps Militaris Preservation: Peep this very interesting 2024 study that was passed along to me a week or so ago. In essence if you are preserving known mating pairs of CM in their monokaryotic forms (through Deep Freezing/LN/Freeze Drying) and combine once your ready to expand to a round of LC and then fruiting substrate you will never experience "senescence"...as this study points out, our perception of "senescence" might be one thing but in fact in the case of C. Militaris it looks like a dominant monokaryon kicks the other Mon out after a series of expansions essentially rendering a dikaryon, monokaryotic once again.

A deep dive that follows along this specific protocol is in the works to see if it can be replicated! Stay stoked and share your fungal-finds homies!

Hey y'all hope you enjoy our first of many sterile technique videos!! There was a minor yet important detail that wasn't mentioned. So whenever working in front of a HEPA filter be sure to never spray the isopropyl directly at the filter (due to damage). Always keep the spray bottle very slanted or even perpendicular to the filter. Also spraying with a downward angle and close to the object helps prevent the large spread of harmful isopropyl spray. Lastly, with an open culture these rules have to be followed to ensure no damage by isopropyl occurs to our live open cultures. Sorry about that and let me know if any other questions arise!

So say one were to set up a fruit room that isn't wicked big like 12'x10' by height of about just over your head. Does anyone think a humidifier like the one I'm about to picture is better than like the house of hydro type of disk fogger? They also have some kind of anti bacterial cube for 6months. Definitely pretty expensive. About $480 something. Also how small of a space is a hart piece good for?

I was wondering if anyone here has experimented using UV lights to detect bacteria or contamination in general in their setups, spawn, substrate etc.

I saw that blotch is florescent and UV at 365nm would make it glow greenish yellow, so I bought a small UV flashlight and I've been testing inspecting the farm with it. So far I've seen the most use when checking out spawn bags, as I can see weird colored glowing stuff in bags that to the eye seem normal... Anyway it's still under the experimental phase but wanted to share and hear your thoughts!
